Exactly. Just need to know your desired tension you normally play on.
In fact, once created, could make it into a custom
C3 set, would be your set and you can name it whatever you want! Makes reordering easy and other players find out this tuning exists.
btw, you can tune a classical string all the way up to A (5th fret) with the right diameter, generally a .024 nylon, without worry or stress on the guitar.
8 string Brahms guitars play a high A as the 1st string. (Paul Galbraith)
